Answer:
It is relatively easy to determine whether an equation is a function by solving for y. When you are given an equation and a specific value for x, there should only be one corresponding y-value for that x-value. For example, y = x + 1 is a function because y will always be one greater than x.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = ax + b
x = 2 → f(x) = 1 and x = - 1 → f(x) = - 5 ( from the table )
Substitute these values into f(x) = ax + b, that is
2a + b = 1 → (1)
- a + b = - 5 → (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate b
3a = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )
a = 2
Substitute a = 2 into (2) and evaluate for b
- 2 + b = - 5 ( add 2 to both sides )
b = - 3
(b)
When x maps onto itself then
ax + b = x, that is
2x - 3 = x ( subtract x from both sides )
x - 3 = 0 ( add 3 to both sides )
x = 3
Thus a = 2, b = - 3 and x = 3
Multiplying fractions by whole numbers:
1. You have to convert the whole number into an improper fraction.
2. You then multiply the fractions straight across.
Ex: 2/3 × 6 =2/3 × 6/1 = 2×6/3×1= 12/3= 4
1 and 3 over 25
